What an amazing story. I just found your story and I fall in love hard with this. Love it, really love it. Btw, is this story in the same universe as Dancing in Time and Endless Waltz?

Review sent by Rinoa05 to the Italian traslation of the story. Author's response will be translated and published as well."This is a really wonderful story. Ironic, funny, and it really makes you laugh.

I can't choose the character I loved the most. I appreciated every one, for different reasons. Squall threatening Carbuncle is really exilarating, I adored when he did it *_
Congratulations to the author and to the translator, you are both wonderful as always!"

Review sent by Little_Rinoa to the Italian translation of the story. Author's response will be translated and published as well."Ashbear never lets you down, no matter if she's writing a serious story, a funny one, a dramatic one and so on *_
I adored this funny story since the very first chapter and from now on I will love Carbuncle even more.

I also found very beautiful the second meaning of this story: to shake the relationsip between Squall and Rinoa, relationship that he obviously accepts, but that she finds a little too 'tight'. I'm anxiously waiting for the last chapter, and thanks to Alessia who let us read this wonderful story!"

Six years for five chapters? O-O dude.

wow, great story! I love it!

Wow, that was amazing...purely amazing...I can say though that you are definitely better at writing humor than me! Cause I found this quite humorous!

Wow, and I mean wow! That was so funny! Poor Zell! That's definitely a situation I would NOT want to be in!

Ha ha-hot dogs! I get it! I love the bantering relationship between the group-Seifer keeps tying his shoelaces lol

Everything is also very descriptive and everyone's in character which is difficult a lot of the time, but you did very well-I can't wait to read more!

hehehe, I absolutely loved the ending. Geez the whole thing was just fun and awesome. It's fun to do something different from the normal. Anyway, awesome work. Keep writing. I look forward to reading more of your work.

FFG- Jo

I kind of have a question to ask... myself. And that is, how in the heck did I manage not to read this before?

You know I'm a huge fan of you already, so I'm going to take the time to kick myself (don't know how I'll do it) for not stumbling upon this sooner. This was another priceless gem for me, and I think I loved everything about it down to the humor, the fluff, the way how you just get Rinoa and Squall (loved his sarcasm and the little quips)and the CUTE ending! Now, I'm smiling like an idiot!
It was really creative with Carbuncle playing a major role with his "reflect" magic... and I know it's kinda mean, but I did think it was funny how Squall reacted to him at first. The threatening to put him in the blender joke... very funny!
I loved the whole thing, it's refreshing to see another light-hearted Squinoa, with your cleverness and added twists. I hope you write another one! Take care!

I just gotta say, I've read this story a few times, and the same with all your other fanfics, and they are a never ending source of inspiration, you're one out of the 3 authors that actually make me feel the feelings in the story, I'm a lousy writter, that's why currently I can't update, so right now I am using Gaia to RP with people, it helps for my fighting scenes and helps me get motivated, I've also been down because my last girfriend cheated on me . I have a perfect score of 3 gf's cheating on me XD. Hehehe, I managed to graduate early but now my dad's making me do translation work for him since language is my thing 60 PAGES LMAO. Anyways I hope you can update soon -_- I love it when you update, I've never seen better stories, and the fact that you don'y bash characters is a blessing sorry if it's annoying that I wrote such a long review again, but this kind of writting makes me get active and start writting again XP, I hope it's going well 4 u in RL, and good luck on raising kids, I only deal with orphans that have AIDS so I have 0 experience dealing with normal kids.

Remember taser guns are our friends, and if you don't have one use your umbrella to beat back the ppl that harras you for change XP speaking from personnal experience

oh whaouh ! that was excellent ! A very nice ending in the perfect continuity of the previous chapters... It was funny and sweet, ah, I loved it !

And with have the answer to the "why Squall doesn't like Carbuncle" question asked at the beginning.
the dialogue with Zell was hilarious, so was the trip from the closet to the training center
thanks for that story
and, happy new year !

So sorry it took me this long to review, Mark got an Ipod for Xmas and he's on the computer C-O-N-S-T-A-N-T-L-Y! Anyway, this chapter was so CUTE! OMG, and the humor was so priceless! "Are you taking me on that date you promised?"Kurse Garden"Trex. poop" and Zell's contemplation of old S and R buying new S and R Xmas gifts, and vice versa! oh, and that Carbuncle thing, is that when we obtained him, during the Iguion fight? I could look it up, but my strategy guide is in a box somewhere. And that's why Squall was so upset. I love the ending, I was hoping he was going to propose! Now she can use his gravy boats too!

Oh, remember I had that loose tooth when we were eating? Well it fell out a couple days later, and I had to spend the whole holidays missing that front tooth, but nobody really minded, everyone's used to seeing it by now. I had to wait until 2008 b4 doing something about it.

So yeah, I laughed at about every paragraph! And I can just picture them running thru the halls trying to hide behind plants! (Did they do the great airplane impersonation? Hey, that was also during the Iguion scene! or right b4 it anyways)

There you go again, with a perfect ending. You always have a perfect ending for your fan fictions, whether it is a "really happy", "kind of happy" or just "a little bit happy" one. And for that and everything else, you're my favorite author… and you’re probably tired of me telling you that). I really like this fic, and you better stop saying it is silly; it's not. Definitely not. I can see so much of my life and myself in this fic... really, Squall and Rinoa are so much like me and my "boyfriend" in this one that I’m kind of scared. The five year old relationship, how our best friends see us and how surprised they are to see that we're still together, how different we are, how we think, how I think, geez, even some dialogues and situations, I’ve seen us saying or doing similar things to each other. Really scary. And dear God, I am SO MUCH like Squall!
I wonder if I'll have a "happy ending" like that one...

Anyway, thanks for completing one more great fanfiction, so I can finally print it and keep it with the other "God knows how many" pages of your fanfictions I have printed, so I can read again and again and again...

A Happy New Year to you and your family, and a wonderful 2008!
